I don't have any Burgundian coins!

My friend you will have to fix that/ coins from Burgundy are amazing and diverse. Coins were struck in Brabant/ Flanders/ Hainault/ Tournai/ Limburg/ Holland until 1477 when Charles the Rash was killed at the Battle of Nancy by coalition of Lorraine and Swiss. Maria then became ruler of Burgundian lands. However Louis XI aka "the Spider King" tried to entangle hapless Maria in his web. Maria escaped his plot and married the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I in same year.

In `1482 while out hunting she was thrown from her horse into a ditch/ the horse ended up crushing her.
